Objective
This document defines the list of tests to be undertaken for the testing of the prototype delay line and trolley.

Scope
The list is a comprehensive suite of tests defined to show that the derived requirements are met and to the extent possible in a prototype test facility that the top-level requirements can be met in the fully operational delay line. The tests listed in this document apply only to the prototype testing though they will form the basis for factory acceptance testing of the production trolley. These tests aim to demonstrate that the design and construction of the delay line structure is adequate for meeting the requirements of a 200m long delay line and that the performance of the trolley and the closed loops involving the metrology system and shear system meet requirements. The metrology system with which these test are conducted is the lab system and not the prototype metrology design which is proposed for MROI.

Introduction

The test list presented here is designed to show that the top level and derived requirements are met and that the performance of the system is maintained over representative observing periods. A short description of each test is given together with any specific conditions that should apply for the duration of the test. The derived requirement with which the test is associated is given in the last column of the tables. A top level requirement is identified with the letters TL followed by the section number and paragraph number. Tests are grouped into categories for convenience of referencing but this is not meant to imply any particular significance or order in testing. All tests are conducted at atmospheric pressure and but substantial subset of these tests are to be repeated under vacuum conditions. The differences between testing at atmosphere and testing under vacuum are explained below

1.1

Grouping of Tests

Tests are grouped under general categories that address some particular aspect of the requirements. These groups are: Slew tests: these test the repositioning time of the trolley, the maximum velocity and acceleration, the power consumption and trolley temperatures, and show that the metrology system maintains lock when the shear system and steering loops are closed. Tracking tests: these comprise constant velocity tests over a range of tracking velocities from 0.1mm/s to 15mm/s, sets of 10 minute long tracking tests to represent normal observation times and tracking over joins to assess the effect of the join. Trajectory tests: these test the re-positioning of a trolley from tracking at one position to tracking at another position, tracking at constant accelerations and tracking reversal and tracking offsets of 0.5µm to 10µm. Roll and shear tests: these check the operation of the shear loop, the secondary tip/tilt servo and the effect of the steering in open and closed loop. They also provide information on the deviations of the delay line pipe. Datum tests: these test the repeatability of the datum switch and the overall stability of the datum over a period of time. Focus tests: these test the resolution and stability of the cat's eye focussing system. Limit tests: these test the functionality of the limits and the characteristics of the trolley and cat's eye servos when a limit is encountered. Vacuum tests: this is a specific test of the hold time of the test rig when evacuated to less than 1mbar.

Test conditions

1.2.1 Testing at atmosphere
Testing at atmosphere is much more convenient than testing under vacuum conditions. Most tests that are met at atmosphere can be expected to meet the requirements under vacuum. The main difference in testing at atmosphere is that air in the pipe will be pushed about by the trolley and so servos will have to work harder and there is more coupling from the trolley to the cat's eye.. On the other hand air damping is also increased. The delay line pipe is left partially open at both ends to allow air to flow in or out and reduce the effect on the trolley. Special arrangements are made to hold the RF antennas, ground plane and RF absorbent material. There are no windows fitted in the metrology beam for these tests.

1.2.2 Testing under vacuum conditions
When testing under vacuum the proper end plates are installed on the delay line pipe and metrology windows are fitted whereas science beam ports are blanked off. The test rig is evacuated to approximately 0.5 mbar.
